38.  3月31日祈禱－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄-譯者:林豪

Jesus shows us that in prayer we can obtain the strength needed to align our will with the Will of the Father and to carry it out.

148.不收獻儀-#多明我語錄

我於1990年認識主業團之後，我發現主業團的神父為我們的意向奉獻彌撒，但是不接受獻儀，不知道為什麼?今天我翻譯到以下的內容，才全然瞭解了。

37.  3月30日以基督為核心－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄-譯者:林豪

God’s love for us led the Son of God to take on a human nature to be able to die, and so, free us from sin. And then, He “divinizes” us by making us sharers in the divine nature. This is the path to heaven. Our faith is not a grand idea but an encounter with a Person: getting to know Christ, falling in love with him, and growing constantly in that love; the greatest Love.

FYI.  這是本週二(3/28/2023) 在達拉斯email給堂區耶穌聖心堂查經班的讀經及心得分享資料。我也會post在line查經分享及各慕道及有關福傳之組群。

主愛的弟兄姊妹，

本週3／28／2023的查經分享專注於於提醒以自己的心神配合，追求真理的共識，領會基督的福音（若4：23－24；箴4：7）。查經共融的目的是回應聖神和教會的邀約：「凡口渴的，請來罷！凡願意的，可白白領取生命的水（默22：17）」；「因為羔羊的婚期來近了，他的新娘也準備好了（默19：7）」。

主愛的弟兄姊妹，

本週3／21／2023的查經分享專注於於提醒以自己的心神配合，追求真理的共識，領會基督的福音（若4：23－24；箴4：7）。查經共融的目的是回應聖神和教會的邀約：「凡口渴的，請來罷！凡願意的，可白白領取生命的水（默22：17）」；「因為羔羊的婚期來近了，他的新娘也準備好了（默19：7）」。

讓我們也繼續在家安排時間繼續默示錄中記載有關【羔羊的婚宴】的研習，確實領會主耶穌復活升天後與愛祂並跟隨祂的門徒（路14：27）天天在一起，直到今世的終結（瑪28：20）。

36.  3月29日死亡－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄-譯者:林豪

Christ has overcome death; thus, I should confront it with peace and filial trust. The consideration of the fleetingness of life on earth encourages me to realize that time is a limited gift from God. It is a talent that I have, to produce a return on. What use am I making of my time?

147.   告解聖事-#多明我語錄

「七件聖事」是教會賦予神父的司祭之一，也是滋養人靈的補給品，不領聖事的靈魂就會貧瘠而死；相反地，勤領聖事，靈魂自然會日益活耀。神父若是不樂於執行教會賦予的神權，他就違反了天主賦予他救靈的使命，其靈命亦已死亡了。

35.   3月28日回歸父家－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄-譯者:林豪

He: "Woman, where are your accusers? No one of them has condemned you? "None, Lord," she answered with great respect, humility, and confusion. "For neither do I condemn you. Go and henceforth sin no more." What wonderful words, coming straight from the heart of God!

34.   3月27日神聖父子之情－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄-譯者:林豪

Holy Week is approaching. A time for the conversion of my heart to God. For this reason, during this week, each day, these considerations will follow the pattern of a “spiritual retreat.”

33.   3月26日出死入生－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄-譯者:林豪 

The dead man Lazarus represents mankind, dead by sin. Why did Jesus decide to go to Jerusalem, when it could cost him his life? What moved him? ... His love for his dead friend. God continues loving the sinner, even when he rebels, even when he is dead. Jesus is shaken and cries for the sinner. Jesus has compassion and love for me; he calls me from death to life.

亡者拉匝祿代表著人類，因罪而死。為什麼主耶穌決定此時要去耶路撒冷？此舉可能會讓祂付出生命的代價，是什麼打動了祂呢？... 是祂對已死去朋友的愛。天主繼續地愛著罪人，即使當他悖逆，即使當他死去。主耶穌感到震驚，為罪人哭泣。主耶穌對我有憐悯和愛；祂召喚我，出死入生。
